These shaggy and noble giants fight for survival as they find themselves on a collision course with the ever-changing world around them. Starring Riley Keough and Jesse Eisenberg, acclaimed directors David and Nathan Zellner (Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter) bring you the greatest Bigfoot story ever told.

Critics Consensus

For audiences attuned to the Zellners' utterly unique wavelength, Sasquatch Sunset offers a moving -- if often inscrutable -- look at our relationship with the natural world.

Tara Brady

Irish Times

Multiple walkouts at Sundance suggest that the film is too languorous for some tastes and too gross for others. Hang in there and it’s rewardingly novel, touchingly human and agreeably nutty.

Rated: 4/5

The Times (UK)

How audacious, beguiling and disturbing is this crazy, absurdist fantasy? Let me count the ways.

Jonathan Romney

Financial Times

Farcical gross-out notwithstanding, the film has a poignant, lyrical spirit underlined by its soundtrack of mock-folksy flute and guitar. It is majestically shot by Mike Gioulakis, capturing the luminous vistas you might associate with Terrence Malick.

Rated: 5/5

The People's Movies

However, the film becomes repetitive very soon. Once you understand where the film is going and what tropes it holds dear, then it becomes fairly obvious to predict what scenes will eventually follow.

Rated: 2.5/5

There will be some tender moments and some hilariously comical ones and not everything will make sense. It’s ok. If there’s one thing for certain, this is the most artistic and poetic sasquatch movie we’ve seen in a long time.

While there are some satirical inklings, SASQUATCH SUNSET might just be as mythical as the creature.

One of the worst movies I have ever seen. It starts with obnoxious, gross humor (vomit, boners, etc.) and turns in a drama documentary.

Vegas vision

This was torture watching it. A group of actors in prosthetic Sasquatch suits does not make a film! If the producers and director wanted to make a statement about the so called cruel world, this was a sham! No acting, just could have been done by an amateur. horrid waste of time n money! Pass this one by, the supposed statement it makes us already well known. Lol, at least have sub titles....

No entertainment value whatsoever! It's pretty much what you'd think a group of ape like creatures would do in their lifetimes.
